Scalia was in Texas to HUNT. Obviously mentally AND physically fit. In a very real sense, the Republic literally hangs and depends on this man. So how the heck does he die so suddenly? Not even suggesting foul play, just wondering what his doctors were doing/thinking. If this man were seriously ill, he should have been strapped to an I.V. pumping him full of whatever has kept Castro - and for that matter Ginsberg - alive until November 4, 2016.
Not that old in this day and time if he was otherwise healthy.
Guess we’ll find out.
Scalia was a good man,but he was an OLD goof man.
He had a good life and his job is finshed.
God wanted him.

I made a terrible error in my post. Sorry.
Lots of luck.
The widow of Vince Parker wanted to know too but then decided she didn’t want to know.
Many things are possible, even things that would not be acceptable to believe. But most likely we will not know with certainty until we reach the other side and all things are revealed.
Not exactly easy but routine and do-able. My husband had it twice and got stents both times.
I knew that was an error. Don’t worry.
My parents lived so much longer than that, I can’t think of 79 as old. My father was 90, my mother 86.
I’m 83———79 is old but some of us are luckier than others.

Yeah, and some people just fall on their knives 4 or 5 times.
you can’t sequester a Justice against his will......
I think an autopsy is in order.
Sometimes people die - especially 79 year old people.
Really? He was under no obligation to be tracked 24/7.
He passed in his sleep. A doctor was not needed in the morning.
If you had to pick one Supreme Court justice who you would have guessed on the basis of genetics and age to be most likely to have a sudden fatal heart attack, who would you have picked?
Frequently the first symptoms of cardiac death is sudden death.
I’m pretty sure that unless you are directly under a doctors care, an autopsy is standard in Texas.
“Frequently the first symptoms of cardiac death is sudden death.”
Note to self, don’t post after taking Flexaril.
[At that age, every day is a gift.]
I will vouch for that. As someone older than 79 I can tell you it is like a car parked at the curb with a parking meter. The meter says “time expired” but the cop has not come by yet to write the ticket.
Enjoy every minute of every day while you can.
That’s one of the reasons I like FREE REPUBLIC.
What was the margin on the Heller decision? That’s right. Four maniacal leftists voted to excise the Second Amendment from the Bill of Rights. Think that’s all they’ve got on the chopping block? (As if that isn’t enough!) We’re basically a bad decision or two away from serfdom or national trigger time. But hey—no pressure.
